Dear Kristina and Bethany,

I could write a beautiful ode to you both and it would include poetry describing how in awe you've left me from our short time together, how impressed I am with your sacrifice and love for the Lord, and detail all of the potential I see in both of you. But let's be honest, thats totally not my style.

So instead I'm just going to remind you of some of our best memories that I'm going to mentally store for those days when I need some ridiculous laughter. 

I will never forget the two of you showing up to the Fourth of July party....well I pretty much already have. Cut me some slack, it was day three for me.

However I have distinct memories of the weekend you crashed at my flat. Bethany, your conscience regarding your bus ticket and the way Kristina begged to ride illegally is definitely a standout. The two of you were so different and yet such a compliment to each other. Also, thanks for eating all that food. I got to buy even more because of you. 

Then the flea market, even though we weren't buddies you both made excellent selections with your fake Ray Bans and that tie dyed dress that might need some work.

I especially loved your creeper stories. Bethany who always gives people the benefit of the doubt and Kristina who suspects everyone of being a stalker. Mostly because she's the biggest stalker of them all. Thanks to you two Team Serbia is definitely embracing their creeper tendencies. I look forward to keeping an eye on your lives as you go home and try to forget about our crazy. (and Bethany I'll get to work on finding out what you need to get married to your wedding buddy)

And the chest hair! I know this is supposed to go on the anonymous blog, but since thats still in the planning stages I'll have to mention it here. Thank you for giving me a goal, a standard by which to test my assimilation into the culture. I only hope to be half the woman you are, chest hair and all.

So, in conclusion:

Bethany: Thank you for being who you are. You are a wonderful individual and I love the way you insist on seeing the beautiful parts of people. I wish you the best of luck in all your future decisions and know that you can call on me anytime you need.

Kristina: Thanks for being a creeper and making me feel special. Next time you should ask how to work the shower before spending twenty minutes trying to work it out yourself. I wish you luck with all of your medical issues and of course you can keep me updated on them, they're always good for a laugh.

I hope you both have good travel today and that we see each other again soon. If not in Serbia, then for sure in Mississippi.

Love,
Amy
